Appendix K.  CPEC310 Scrub Module Installation, Operation, and Maintenance 

K-2 

The CPEC310 scrub module pump pulls ambient air through three bottles of 

molecular sieve and pushes it to the valve module. The ambient air inlet and 

zero air outlet

 

fittings are on the bottom of the enclosure. It uses a small 

diaphragm pump that is mounted in an insulated, temperature-controlled box 

inside the weather-tight fiberglass enclosure. 

The following are descriptions of the operating parameters of the scrub pump. 

Pump Control 

The pump is turned on automatically when the 

Zero Air

 valve is selected. The 

pump has a maximum flow rate of approximately 2.0 LPM and a maximum 

pressure rise of approximately 90 kPa.  

Scrub Pump Outlet Pressure

 

The measured outlet pressure of the pump is reported in public variable 

scrub_press

. This pressure will normally be 1 to 23 kPa when it is running. 

Scrub Pump Temperature

 

The temperature of the scrub pump is reported in public variable 

scrub_tmpr

The operating range of the pump is 5 to 50 °C. If the scrub temperature is 

within the operating range the public variable 

scrub_tmpr_ok

 will be set to 

True

. If the scrub pump temperature is outside this range, the CPEC310 will 

disable the pump and the public variable 

scrub_tmpr_ok

 will be set to 

False

The scrub pump module has a heater (drawing 8W while operating) that turns 

on if the pump temperature falls below 7 °C. If the CPEC310 is started at cold 

temperature, it may take up to 20 minutes to warm the scrub pump module 

(from –30 to 5 °C). When it reaches 7 °C the heater will cycle on/off as needed 

to maintain this temperature. 

The scrub pump module has a fan (drawing 0.7 W while operating) that turns 

on if the pump temperature rises above 45 °C. The fan will stay on until the 

scrub pump temperature falls below 40 °C.

K.3  Installation 

There are numerous mounting options for the scrub module including tripod 

(mast or leg), tower, or pole. Enclosure mounts are specified when ordering the 

CPEC310 Scrub Module and mounting the module is accomplished in the

The typical average power consumption is generally negligible in a CPEC310 system 

because it is used for a short time each day.
